Chapter 706: Greed to the End
Chapter 706: Greed to the End
"You two don't know that although the guy who just walked past seems to be very powerful, there are even more monstrous ones waiting for us ahead."
Ji Guan Suan Jin spoke up, looking at Lu Li who was selecting teammates over there, "I think most of us should just go back and take a nap. Isn't it better to save the experience to fight in a mission world?"
"Are you trying to say that there is a big daddy in your origin space?"
Daofa Wubian figured out what the other party meant.
After all the tricks were worked out, he smiled without saying anything and turned and left.
On the other side, Lu Li faced off against old acquaintances again. One was the Fire of the Ape, and the other was a group member he had never met before, the Demon Spirit from the Fairy Spirit Space.
But he didn't expect that the demon spirit was actually a woman. From the way she spoke in the group, he always thought she was a buddy.
"Brother Prisoner, come on, I just formed a team and you're here to tear it down?"
Gorilla Fire's face was full of bitterness. "Although it's nice to cling to your thigh, I also want to be the captain."
The captain's phased reward in the event is 70%, while the pendant is only 10%, which is a huge difference.
After two worlds, he is now at the peak of level six and has considerable strength. He just won the battle against the evil spirit. Because they are group members, he stopped at the right time and did not break the opponent's protective barrier.
Mainly as a teammate. Now it is still the preliminaries. Keeping a protective film will be very effective when you encounter tough battles later.
"I did not mean that."
Lu Li said with a smile, "Come on, the rules say that you can't refuse a challenge."
With a sad face, Gorillas Fire walked onto the stage with Lu Li. It was said to be a 2V2, but in fact Black Lily didn't even make a move. Lu Li suppressed the two group members in the blink of an eye.
"You're even better in person than in public. I didn't see you being so perverted during the live broadcast."
The demon spirit said with a strange look on his face, and brushed off the non-existent dust on his clothes when he stood up.
She was tall, with curvy figure and quite full peaks, she was dressed in a purplish black veil, with makeup embellishing her brows, she looked alluring and otherworldly, quite like a demonic witch, who practiced a kind of demonic technique in the fairy space, which was quite alien.
But in the fight just now, she used her charm skills repeatedly, but Lu Li ignored her and directly punched her chest to collapse.
The most infuriating thing was that Lu Li actually said that he didn't control the strength well. He didn't expect her to be so weak and almost pierced the membrane.
"Alas, I am not as skilled as others. I have to accept my fate and serve as a pendant for Brother Prisoner. At least I can move up in the rankings. The teams at the back may not even get any points."
Gorilla Fire seemed to have let it go. He had also analyzed the competition system and felt that in this kind of competition, it was very likely that the teams at the front would stand out while the teams at the back would not get any benefits.
So even if you are the captain, if you can't win, it's zero. On the contrary, if you are the pendant of the boss, 10% is also a bonus.
He scratched his hairy head and walked towards Lu Li with a helpless look on his face. To his surprise, Lu Li smiled and pushed him away with his hand.
"Who said I want to choose you? I want to choose Miss Mo Ling."
Lu Li said with a smile.
"what?"
Gorilla Fire was a little confused, "Brother Prisoner, are you kidding me? I am stronger. I still have a combat power entry that increases damage by 18 points!"
"What are you talking about, you stupid gorilla? How are you better than me? If my charm is not ineffective against a guy like you with abnormal aesthetic sense, what can you use to fight me!?"
The demon spirit got a little angry after hearing what the gorilla said, and almost pointed at his nose and cursed him.
After scolding the gorilla, she walked towards Lu Li with a leisurely pace, took Lu Li's arm in a very familiar manner, and clung to Lu Li's arm, "Brother Prisoner Demon, don't listen to the nonsense of the gorilla. You should understand my power~"
Lu Li pulled his hand away and looked at the demon in confusion, "What power do you have? Are you referring to the wink you just gave me? Was that some kind of attack?"
Monster: ...
She felt a little withdrawn and wanted to go home before she even made it through the preliminaries.
She suddenly realized that the man in front of her might be no different from an orangutan.
"The power of the demon spirit is too limited. It is only effective against humans, and is particularly effective against human males. It is basically ineffective against aliens, and slightly less effective against women. It is difficult to use it in this kind of competition."
Black Lily said that as one of the few female members in the group, she had naturally communicated with the evil spirits and was somewhat familiar with their powers.
"Hey, don't talk nonsense."
Lu Li said in dissatisfaction, "Why do you say that as if I'm not a human male."
The three group members present all stared at Lu Li, as if everything was self-evident.
"Alright alright."
Lu Li was too lazy to continue discussing this issue. "I chose Miss Mo Ling not because of her combat power, I just liked her entry."
The entry for the Monster Spirit is of the same type as Black Lily, named Rich as a Nation, and has an economic boost of up to 40%. Lu Li was really envious.
"Although I don't seem to be in a position to say this..."
Black Lily hesitated, "But, Brother Prisoner, is it really a good idea to take all economic items?"
"Good! Why not?"
Before Lu Li could say anything, the demon spirit came up to him with a smile on her face and stuck close to him. "Brother Prisoner Demon, your combat power is unparalleled in the world. Why do you need any combat power terms? You should seize this opportunity and make a lot of money. If you have money, you will have combat power."
"Ah."
Lu Li nodded solemnly, "That's the truth."
Black Lily was speechless. She seemed to have seen through Mo Ling's thoughts. It turned out that he found out that her abilities were not useful in the competition and he was determined to curry favor with her.
She had no way to deal with the shameless spirit of the demon spirit, and she knew that the demon prisoner had always been a greedy person. It was normal for him to be unable to move when he saw the 40% economic item.
"Brother Prisoner...are you going to abandon me?"
Orangutan Fire looked at Lu Li with a face full of grievance.
"Get out of the way. Don't try to play tricks on me, you grown man. I remember there is a combat team over there. You can find someone to form a team and run over there now. There is still time."
Lu Li waved his hand and said that he didn't think the gorilla was weak, but he really wanted to put together a 100% economic gain combination.
If he let go of this opportunity to make money, he would not be named Lu. As for whether the Valkyrie on the other side of the field would grab a lot of combat power entries, he didn't care, he was greedy anyway.
There is always a way out when you reach the mountain. In such a battle between masters, he felt that whether he could win or not could not be determined by just the increase in the external force.
Lu Li searched the scene with Black Lily and the Demon Spirit and soon locked onto the target.
He found a three-person team, in which there was a fat man named "Gangsuanjin" who had an economic entry, just like Black Lily, with a 30% economic increase.
In this way, he can put together a team with 100% amplification rewards and get a lot of benefits from the nine spaces.
"This great man from the End, could you please not select the combat power item in our team?"
As a result, just as Lu Li led his men over and had not yet said he wanted to challenge, the leader of the other side spoke with a bitter face.
Obviously, this place is not big, with only eighteen people in total. Lu Li's two actions were seen by everyone. Even those who have never heard of his name knew that Lu Li was not easy to mess with when they saw him suppress the contestants with ease.
"Fuck, you just said you would share the hardship with me, you two are so disloyal!"
Ji Guan Suan Jin cursed angrily, saying that he was the only one in their team who did not have a combat power entry, so they were just pointing at him.
"I'm sorry, Brother Fatty, you've seen it too, we're really no match for them."
The other two said with a smile that they were all from the origin space and were all randomly assigned to the competition venue here. They formed a team together after some discussion.
"The process still needs to be followed. Come on, get on the stage."
Lu Li smiled and said, "Don't worry, I promise I won't beat you to death."
The three contestants from the Origin Space felt aggrieved, but they did not dare to say much. They could only hope that Lu Li would keep his word and not break their death-free shield, so that they would have room for error later on.
After entering the ring, Lu Li did not attack immediately, but let Black Lily and Mo Ling take action. He also wanted to see the true level of his teammates and what methods they had.
If you fight him, he will kill you instantly without giving your teammates any chance to perform.
As a result, when the battle started, he unexpectedly discovered that Black Lily and the Sylph's skills, as well as their coordination, one curse and the other charm, two against three suppressed the three players from the Origin Space.
However, the battle situation was still a little stalemate. Lu Li was afraid that his first qualifying qualification would be snatched away, so he took action directly, punching each kid one by one, and knocked all three of them out of the ring.
He acted with discretion and did not cause death, so he would not break the opponent's barrier to immortality, which could be considered as fulfilling his promise.
After participating in this so-called nine-space brawl, Lu Li had a clear understanding of his own strength among his peers in the nine spaces.
Ordinary elite explorers, with the same attributes, are indeed no match for him, there is a clear gap.
He looked at the 18 players in his own division and felt that only one or two of them caught his eye.
After all, they are explorers of the fifth or sixth level, and their strength is limited. In Lu Li's competition area, he only saw a player named "Silk Stocking Milk Tea" from Hongmeng Space, whose comprehensive attributes broke through the sixth-level barrier.
In other words, this person is very powerful. Lu Li feels that he needs to use some tricks and activate abilities such as Bankai in order to win.
In Lu Li's opinion, the others were a bit weak. It wasn't because of their attributes, but the difference in attack power and tankiness. With the same attributes, none of them were top-notch.
These contestants are all elites from various spaces. If I’m not mistaken, there are also judges and pioneers among them, who are much stronger than ordinary explorers.
It seems that in space, there is only stronger, not strongest.
The gap between people of the same level is not very clear in the later stage, but in the field of level 5 and 6, the gap is really big.
A strong man would probably have no pressure at all to defeat a hundred weak men of the same level.
Lu Li analyzed that this was mainly because at this stage, the explorers had not yet walked out of their own paths, simplified things, and refined their own powers.
I am afraid that by the time the surviving explorers reach the late seventh stage, or even the eighth stage, their power systems will be formed, and the gap between the strong and the weak will become smaller.
[Dear Pioneer No. 008, your team has gathered four members, making it the first team to qualify in the current division and the second team to qualify in the overall division.]
[The leader of another division has already chosen the initial identity of the team. Please start choosing. ]
After Lu Li gathered the team, he heard the prompt from the End Space and a menu appeared in front of him.
The top column of the menu shows the order of advancement and the time required to assemble a team of four.
The team ranked first was the Valkyrie Squad from the Origin Space. It showed that it took the other party only 46 seconds to form a team, which surprised Lu Li.
In terms of efficiency, he felt it would be fine if he could just go find someone and fight quickly.
But he thought for a while about the rules and how to select people. Is the other party's brain so quick to react?
However, the order of qualifying only determines the camp selection. The first few teams that qualify can all make a good start, and the difference is not that big.
Lu Li began to browse down, and just by looking at the optional camps, he had a rough idea of the format of this competition in the Fairy Tail world.
The so-called camp means that they can choose the guild team they will be in at the beginning of the game, and there are currently eight guild teams in the list.
They are Sword Bite Tiger, Fairy Tail B Team, Crow Tail, Snake Princess Scale, Blue Pegasus, Mermaid Heel, Four Hounds, and Fairy Tail A Team.
Just by looking at these options, Lu Li thought of the great demon battle and martial arts show in the original plot. It was probably that after the transformation of Lingxu Palace and the nine spaces, they were going to choose this node as the venue for the competition.
Among the current options, Mermaid Heel has been marked as dark and cannot be selected. It has already been selected by the Valkyrie team. After Lu Li thought about it, he simply chose Fairy Tail Team A.
He didn't know why the Valkyrie didn't choose Fairy Tail. This might be related to personal preference, but Lu Li felt that after he won the Space Brawl and then conquered the world, it would be more convenient to act with the protagonist group.
After selecting the camp, Lu Li and others waited for the results at the outpost. After all the teams qualified, the nine spaces would teleport the explorers who passed the preliminaries to the Fairy Tail world.
Because there were not many people, there were few fierce battles between the teams, and the winners were decided in less than an hour.
In Lu Li's competition, an explorer from the End Space whom Lu Li did not know and an explorer from the Arcane Space were eliminated.
Gorilla Fire joined the team of Three-Eyed God and even got the position of captain, which fulfilled his wish of becoming captain.
After the qualifying teams were decided, everyone heard the notification sound from their own space.
[All teams have qualified, the identities within the world have been selected, and the official launch has begun...]
Following the prompt sound, Lu Li and the others disappeared on the platform and headed to the main competition world.
After a while, Lu Li heard the noise of the crowd, as if he was in a huge arena with endless spectators cheering.
When his vision cleared, he saw that he was standing on the edge of the stands of an absurdly grand circular stadium, and next to him were familiar faces that he had seen in comics.
